No it's a clone of the Octoprint one, it basically lets you print directly to repetier server without needing to load up Repetier Host. It will display your camera if you have it and show you the print progress. The cancel and pause don't seem to have handlers in the Octoprint plugin to send commands to cancel a job, so I couldn't clone them in my plugin. You can however, make it move, home etc via the monitor page.

I'll have to research. I'm not sure if I can put more buttons on the monitor screen.

You can't easily add more buttons to the monitor screen. It is on my list of things to do. Extruder heatup first (similar to bed heatup), and then custom buttons/controls.

As a headsup, @nallath is working on a rewrite of network printing for Cura 3.2, which will mean the OctoPrint plugin (and your fork of it) will also need some substantial refactoring to be compatible.

Our picks

We're not only trying to always make Ultimaker Cura better with the usual new features and improvements we build, but we're also trying to make it more pleasant to operate. The interface was the focus for the upcoming release, from which we would already like to present you the first glance.

Designing for light-weight parts is becoming more important, and I’m a firm believer in the need to produce lighter weight, less over-engineered parts for the future. This is for sustainability reasons because we need to be using less raw materials and, in things like transportation, it impacts the energy usage of the product during it’s service life.
